    Sector oversized - like my watches to be more like clocks

    Before this I had one of these bad boys (Now in the cupboard)

    Before that one I had a Citizen EcoDrive Nighthawk - still around somewhere but the hour hand gets stuck at 11pm, 11am is no problem though :sigh: internal second time zone keeps perfect time though.......

    It tracks my runs and when the ground gets gnarly or the fog descends I can find my way home. GPS on the wrist is the way to go.

    Hasn't been yet, the bracelet has been lengthened and it will probably have to go in after Christmas.

    The service is actually quite well priced for the amount of work that they do.

    Got a great deal on ebay with this. Still searching for my dream ana-digi watch. Been through about 5 in the last 4 months and none were exactly what I wanted. The Skyhawk is good, but fiddly to use.

    Awesome. I thought about getting the Red Arrows version but ended up going for the titanium case one with the orange detailing.

    This one:

    That shows which time signal it has locked onto. These watches receive the time signal at 2am each morning (or at 3 and then 4 if they can't get it). The EUR one is located in Germany, can't recall the exact location.

    You can force them to go look for the signal if it fails to get it overnight.
